MOD is the Amiga tracker format — sequenced instrument samples forming chiptune and demo music. The PlayStation Portable (PSP) is Sony's handheld gaming console with a 480x272 TFT screen and dedicated media playback capabilities. Converting MOD to PSP Video produces an MP4 file encoded to the PSP's specific requirements: H.264 Baseline Profile Level 1.3, MPEG-4 Simple Profile, or AVC at 480x272 resolution with AAC-LC audio — the exact specifications that the PSP's XMB media player accepts.

The PSP cannot play tracker formats — its media firmware only supports MP4, AVI (MPEG-4 SP), and Memory Stick Video. For PSP owners who want to listen to chiptune and MOD music on their handheld, video conversion is the only reliable path. The PSP's excellent audio output (both built-in speakers and headphone jack) makes it a surprisingly good portable music player for retro gaming audio.

This conversion appeals to PSP homebrew community members, retro gaming enthusiasts, and collectors who use PSPs for both gaming and media consumption with a preference for chiptune and demoscene music.

FFmpeg renders MOD tracker audio to stereo PCM and encodes to AAC-LC at 128 kbps. Video is encoded to H.264 Baseline Profile Level 1.3 at 480x272 (the PSP's exact native resolution) with a maximum bitrate of 768 kbps. The MP4 container follows Sony's PSP-specific atom ordering for recognition by the XMB media player. Files must be placed in the PSP/VIDEO directory on the Memory Stick for automatic detection.

480x272 is the PSP's native screen resolution. The converter targets this exactly for pixel-perfect display.

Yes. PSP Go uses the same media firmware as PSP-1000/2000/3000. H.264/AAC MP4 at 480x272 works on all PSP models.

Custom firmware PSPs can run homebrew tracker players, but they lack the polish of the XMB media player. Video conversion provides the most seamless experience.

The PSP supports files up to 2 GB in FAT32. At typical MOD lengths and 480x272 encoding, you will never approach this limit.
